You might have a different model then. In which case, you probably have a different protocol to defrost..

Try holding Energy saver and fridge that’s normally the other method for other models

@@blanknaruto1127 That did it! Thank you!

You might need to hold it down longer, but maybe your unit is broken?

Hi there! Sorry, but I'm not sure of the brand. They were discontinued, but I got them years ago from JCPenny

If you're really frosted over, it might take a couple cycles. A few years ago, before we knew about the defrost cycle, we decided it was broken and just left it for a year. By the time I figured out the defrost cycle, it was almost a complete block of ice. Couldn't even open the ice drawer. Took about 4 cycles before I could even open it. Since then it usually takes 1-2 cycles to really get everything melted. Of course, it could just be that your ice machine is busted. I'm honestly not a fan of Samsung fridges or washing machines..

You have to do it at least 4 times

Hm, thank you for your comment. Might be that your model is different? I also learned this from a Samsung video. The first time I did it, I held the buttons but the menu didn't pop up. I tried again and held the buttons longer and that worked. Hope you got into your menu.

@@realryanhomes6858 Ok I got it. Hold Power Freeze & Flex Space til lights go off.. then you hit Flex Space repeatedly til you see the Fd cycle up. If you don't see choices cycle up. Then try holding the first two buttons again and then switch to hitting just Flex Space. It should have beeps too when your cycling. Then it has really annoying beeping for 30 mins while defrosting.

@@blanknaruto1127 Ya i did everything including using a steamer and melting all the ice. Its still not making ice? Water comes out of the water button. But it doesn't seem to be filling the tray or maybe not dumping the tray?

Glad it helped!

I'm planning to use one of those "Expert Gardener" brand fertilizers they sell at Walmart - trying to stay cheap and hope it still works well. Probably the 30-0-4 one.

Hey, glad to provide a little support.

Ya, not pretty over here, but it sure does work. Hope yours has the same results.

Glad it helped!

Thank you for your comment. My goal is to post every 7-12 days to show progress, and will definitely post a month or so after everything is dead too - assuming it actually dies!

Glad it helped! Thank you for the comment.

Ah, sorry to hear that. If your wheels were already touching the gound, it's possible that they may have sunk into your flooring and you will just need to remove pretty much everything from the fridge to lighten it, then rock it out of that impression. It's also possible that the wheels are broken or stuck in place, especially if your fridge hadn't been raised. In which case, from what I've heard in other comments, the only way to remove the fridge is to slide it on some sliders or upsidedown carpet squares. Then tip it back, remove the old wheels and replace them (unless you're ok with just sliding it around). Hope this helps!

Thanks for your comment. Ya, I agree, prepping is the hardest, but I guess it pays off. Too bad you rand out of sealant - should still hold though, right?

Thanks for your comment!

Thanks for the comment. Ya, Dr. Shaddox's video is one of the reasons I started to consider going heavy on nitrogen. You're right though, I should look into a local feed store instead of Walmart. I'll have to do some looking around in my area.

To the right, I belive so it screws into the base of the fridge

Hey, sorry I didn't really film that part. There are black disk looking feet that twist up and down which should be holding the fridge up so the wheels don't touch the ground. It's a pain, but you have to twist the knobs so they go up into the fridge, lowering it so the wheels make contact with the floor. If your wheels were already making contact, they might just need some pushing and pulling to break free or they could be damaged in which case try getting a furniture slider and sliding it that way. Might scuff the floors though.

Hey, thanks for the tip. I'll check it out and add it to my plan if the price fits.

Hey man, that's a great breakdown. I'm in Ohio - fairly new build (6 years old now) on what used to be a farm. The soil here is pretty much devoid of nutrients from the crops sucking all that up over years. I'll definitely look into the 10-10-10 too if the heavy nitrogen fertilizer isn't doing enough. The weed spot-check is something I've been hearing a lot about since I posted this. Glad to hear a bottle can last so long. I'll be adding that to the plan too. Thanks for the great post and advice. Much appreciated.

I've never looked into Lesco 007 or Prodiamine before. Just did some research on them though. The Prodiamine looks pretty cost effective for the long-term with at about $100/bottle, but it looks like a bottle could last me maybe 2 years. Still, that's $50 extra per year, and I'm trying my best to keep the total cost under $100 for now. Great reviews though, so I'll keep it on the list if I do need to go over budget in the future. The Lesco one looks more affordable at about $45 from Lowes for a bag that would last me for about 3 applications. I already added the preemergent from the Weed and Feed for this spring, so I'm going to hold off on this for now, but I'll probably pick up a bag and test it out later in the year if I notice a lot of weeds creeping in. Although, these 2 products look like they're more for crabgrass. My weed problem is usually just clover, so I'm still on the lookout for something that could get rid of that. Thanks for the advice though!

I did use Sta green a few years ago when my lawn was first established. Their stuff worked pretty well actually. I'll look into the price. Slow release sounds logical too. I'll look into the one from Walmart this year because it seems plenty of people have posted good results from it, but I'm going to put Sta green on my calendar to use for next year so I can compare the two. I appreciate the advice.

@@realryanhomes6858 The kelp and gypsm in the sta green is just marketing. If you want to incorporate those elements into your lawn, thats fine, but doing it with a granule fert is like tossing coins down a wishing well. The walmart fert *is* slow release and if the commenter above took 2 seconds to read the label he would have known that. What you said early on about dethatching and aerating is correct, and your fert plan is solid. Just remeber to water in whatever you apply to the lawn, and don't apply when your soil is wet. But you probably knew all that.

Ah, good to know. Ya, I'm planning on sticking to this plan for now - cheap and seems to work for others, but I'm open to advice. Haven't had a chance to read the label very closely yet because I haven't been to the store to grab a bag, but good to know that the Walmart brand is slow release too. Thanks for the advice.

Hey thanks. I've done labor work for landscape companies in the past, but they only ever bought in bulk from special distributors. Still trying to figure out the best bang for my buck at home. Any brand recommendations are appreciated.

Hey, glad it helped!

Hey, hope the third time's the charm!

Hey, thanks for your comment. Seems pretty logical now that you meantion it. In retrospect, it could have just been because this house was a new build and all the flushing of the system that came with installing the water softener is what did the trick. Or maybe the system is actually catching and flushing it? Either way, no more pink stuff (iron), and we're enjoying the soft water.

P.S. i used a metal BBQ skewer with a "hook" on the end!

Lol, yup. pretty much

That's odd. It should be there, but might be under a few layers of insulation? Or is it possible that you have a different model that mine?

Hello. Still holding strong. Zero additional separation and zero moisture.

The company is telling me i don't need to drill....do you think that made a difference?

Sorry for the late reply, but there is no pilot light. This is an electric model.

Ah, sorry it didn't work out. If you want to try a slightly different method, try getting a paperclip or something small that you can twist the line around just a little bit to make it tighter where you need it. If that doesn't work, you'd have to try to remove the shade and level it from the top. Best of luck!
